Roots in Entangle is still unreliable… It can still be stealth out of and blocked and missus when user is blinded. sometimes ppl can even walked out of it randomly… I think entangle needs to be an unblock able skill (it’s a root shld work like traps). Also the root should not be able to be blinked out of… Ie if a thief shadow steps with root on him the root shld still be on him until it’s broken…

Make it destroyable with projectiles and I’d call that a fair deal.

The one class that has the biggest issue with entangle would be another ranger – go figure…

i don’t think it can be stealthed out of, and if it can, its because the thief is using the trait that removes conditions every 3 seconds while in stealth, otherwise he’s teleporting out of it.

I agree. This skill does not trigger in a logical or consistent way.

I can confirm what the OP is saying. If you get hit with entangle, you can enter stealth and get out without any immobilization clearing. I think the roots don’t “see” you, so they don’t hit you and allow you to walk out.

As for people walking out normally, this will happen to anyone with enough condition duration reduction (i.e. warrior with 98% immob reduction). It makes entangle entirely ineffective.

It also has an odd characteristic due to the pulsing nature whereby a person can cleanse the immobilize but immediately be immobilized again if they do it at just the wrong time.

As weird as it sounds, the immobilize from entangle should perhaps be applied in a single application instead of a pulse. This would make it so that you can’t stealth or walk out of the roots, but you could still cleanse the immob or break the roots like normal. The bleeding would still be done in a pulse though.
